No, they put someone whose very carefully crafted and worded response to the Bishop painted a large target on her back. 1600 violent and freshly pardoned followers owe him.
Sounds like a child coming home from school complaining about the teacher - who put him on time out for behaving badly. We all SAW the same speech. It was NOT boring, it was not lacking grace. It was spot on, trying to bring the REAL "Jesus" to the fake christians.
And he's still labouring under the impression that "immigrants" and "asylum" in the same sentence means they have been "deposited from mental institutions"! And we used to think Baby Bush was stupid...🙄🙄
Leaving aside all the usual expected asinine stuff, I've noticed he's somewhat fixated on "mental institutions". Mentioned numerous times. Instructive (and disturbing) that he demonises and dumps on an essentially voiceless community. Next up: resurrection of 18th century bedlam tourism industry?
“The FAA is actively recruiting workers who suffer severe intellectual disabilities, psychiatric problems, and other mental and physical conditions under a diversity and inclusion hiring initiative spelt out on the agency’s website,” said Trump.
It's the only way he can justify the way he views certain people.
Clearly his views are so unreasonable and unjustified, and without any supporting evidence, that they can only be "explained" by throwing in the randomness and unpredictability of mental illness.
I thought that was because he confused the institutions with the the term granting asylum to immigrants?That’s why he conflates immigrants with the mentally ill.
So a fat orange man baby standing in front of a church, holding a bible, after locals have been forcefully removed for a picture opportunity, is gracious!!!???
This is getting worse by the minute. Even Mussolini or Franco wouldn't have attacked the Church in such a situation. The fact he has enough power and following to be able to implement his manipulative dogma upon enough of a population with this sort of thing is actually shocking and petrifying.
We know who needs to apologise and it isn’t this woman who has more moral fibre in her little finger nail than the FOTUS ever had in his whole bloated orange body.
No, much more evil . The inauguration was like a film of a crucible gathering for devil worshippers . It felt bad. Those attending are scared. Surprised you are not seeing full picture
Somebody mentioned that it looks like trump doesn't understand the difference between asylum as in immigration vs insane asylums and I cannot unsee it.
“Back to the Future II” may have been a parody but now we have “Biff” in the Whitehouse. We’re needing Marty McFly and the Doc to rescue the US and the rest of us. Four 🤬🤬 years of this stuff 😩
I noticed a whole lot of confessional content in this tweet....In fact every word. "They're electing criminals and rapists in America and releasing domestic cop killing terrorists from prison to threaten our national security " etc. Toddlers are angelic. His confession...not so much .
The self proclaimed saviour ordained by god apparently doesn’t really have any understanding of the teachings of Christ. That explains why he didn’t place his hand on the bible when taking oath. The reality is he’s the new Czar who demands unquestioning obedience & loyalty from his subjects.
This gives so much insight into why abusers behave as they do. That even a plea for mercy is seen as nastiness and an attack to him personally shows you how different the reality he lives in is to ours.
She was so brave, and is outstanding at her job - which is to teach compassion. Of course Trump would find it boring because he doesn’t understand empathy.
He clearly doesn’t understand what it means to be a Christian. Massive respect to the Bishop for speaking up for morality but I hope that doesn’t put her in danger. The US is becoming the land of free criminals.
If he cannot handle a request for mercy, he hasn't the temperament nor the discretion to hold the power he stole. A prince would have at least feigned grace for the appearance of the blessings of heaven. The despot has no time for such. He knows not grace nor humility,and we all will suffer.
The American Episcopal Church separated from Britain’s after the American Revolution. We have our own Presiding Bishop now. Budde’s sermon was in line with the Bible and Book of Common Prayer’s Baptismal covenants, including respecting the dignity of every person.
We’re Anglican in the historical sense but independent of the Church of England. Anglican in the US is a fundamentalist sect of the Episcopal Church and much closer to Baptists.
Neither the recent ArchB of Canterbury or his replacement has any moral authority as men who have allowed child abuser colleagues to remain in positions in the Church.
The Bishop of Newcastle who spoke out against both is the CofE’s beacon of decency. No coincidence that she’s a woman.
Everyday, multiple times a day, stupid shit like this will go on …31.78% of voting Americans are cult members, prepared to destroy anything and everything ..and they’re hatred has spread and continues to spread
And this is just the start of his second reign of terror, grift, sleaze & subversion of the rule of law, decency, morality & reality. That he’s harnessed the right-on religious lobby and then goes after a bishop in this way should rock their faith in the tangerine tyrant, but sadly it won’t. Grim.
The Bishop is articulate, compassionate, decent and truthful. All excellent qualities which are alien to Trump, so of course the convicted felon, orange man baby threw his toys out of the pram. Perhaps it's true that truth hurts?
It’s 2025, and this is Trump’s social media version of (pick one):
a) public stoning
b) public drowning
c) crucifixion
d) gibbeting
e) boiling
f) impalement
g) burning at the stake
h) blood eagle
It is puerile, but with respect Trump knows what he is doing. He is a psychopath. I grew up in North America. There is much that is very good about NA. With Trump it’s as if everything vile about NA culture has been distilled, purified, infused into his every cell. Agent Orange exudes toxicity.
I genuinely hate that motherf**ker & the people who put in back in office. From the Supreme Court, corrupt politicians, billionaires, and all the citizens who voted for him.
She delivered the word of God and Trump doesn’t like it.
Using his own logic. If Trump believes God saved him from assassination then he has to believe God told the bishop to say those words. 😂😂👍
My toddlers were less petulant than this awful creature the Americans elected. American politics offers about as much hope as current Britush politics - for those who believe in God perhaps ask him to help as it seems shirt of revolt nothing else will.
“Radical left”?
I think the teaching of most faiths, to be fair, is to care for and about those who are disadvantaged in life. Who are less fortunate than you.
If that’s radical left, that’s quite an admission.
Heard Nato Green on the Bugle yesterday where he said his Democrat-heavy neighbourhood has been organising mass primal scream events on the hills. Can't really suggest anything more useful for sensible Americans really. They're a bit stuffed.
The Right Rev Mariann Budde gave a wonderful, well-crafted, and necessary sermon, speaking truth to power. If that is seen by those on the right as “woke”, then let's wear the label with pride.
Trump has never understood that the President is suppose to be a Diplomat. He cannot handle that role. It's all about him, his paper thin skin, and his tiny little hands.
I knew the petulant manbaby wouldn't be able to resist, they should have had a Westboro baptist 'pastor' fluffer in there to spare lil' donny's fragile ego
He is utterly insane. I sure hope she doesn't apologize. She has NOTHING TO SAY SORRY FOR. He is the most unpresidential and pretentious idiot to open his mouth.
why amplify him here ....by simply repost his attack? why play his game of pushing the 'noise'? That's the intent of this post - to drown out the minister and ensure his comments dominate media.
Oh, the non-verbal signalling! Defensive, arrogant smirks from family Trump, shocked annoyance with a tinge of embarrassment from the Vances (they’re new at this). But Melania was the 1 to watch. Pure, ‘if looks could kill’ cold hatred. This era will live in dramatisations forever, in years to come
I wondered if she was angry about being reminded of her own immigrant status and the questions that were raised about whether she’d worked in the US illegally before she met Trump.
It certainly seemed that the Bish was saying things that struck a chord, yes.
I think all of Trump's kids are in danger of having their citizenship revoked if it's proved she wasn't a citizen when she had them.
They are all OK because their dad is American, and both of the mothers were there legally when they were born. I think we may see young Barron emerge into US politics by the mid-2030s…
The thing that we need to beware of is that Trump could quite easily claim dual British-American nationality through his mum. And Musk is already dual American-Canadian… 😬
Trump's preferred form of preaching is the sort that is focused on encouraging the congregation to deposit lots of money with him (them).
Money and those with it is all that keeps his attention. Oh, and extensive flattery.
Oh, please have mercy for all people with a good heart, sound mental health and a demo cratic mind set. Mercy is one of the most important Christian values. As well as " caritas". DJT has none of it.

The opposition in Russia is never assassinated; it falls victim to "armed robberies". This is so much worse than people realize.
Extraditions will be followed by camps or prisons for those who can't be extradited.
The American Gulag beckons.

There's too much Trump on Bluesky.
But that is a _specimen_.
We have known this, since then!
It starts as it will continue.
😵💫
Awww, the 'Chosen One' is upset because the bishop hurt his feelings by holding him to his own words.
"As you told the nation yesterday, you felt the providential hand of a loving God..."
WTF!
Mummy, the Nasty bishop was rude to me!

You know he will
Wait.. Can you rip an old ass a new one??
Anyway,
would be awsome to see the pope lay into Trump for the world to see.. again
The average toddler has considerably better manners than Trump
Guessing an adult got in the room and pulled the phone out of his hand.
Some of us left X to get away from Trump et al.
Can you please not? Thanks.

The church should be a Prophet-making organization that afflicts the comfortable and comforts the afflicted.
(Non-believers are also called to these sorts of courageous prophetic roles.)
